you can see it in richard's latest reporting from the largest city in syria, a city nearly the size of chicago. richard reporting that at least some of that city is becoming all but uninhabitable for civilians. more than two million people live in that city. where will they go? and you see it in the actions of other countries towards syria. syria's closest ally other than iran is russia. today russia moved five warships to the mediterranean to prepare to evacuate russian citizens out of that country. there are a lot of russians who live in syria. and a massive evacuation is something russia had resisted doing all of this time because, we think, they thought it would make their ally look bad. well, now things have progressed in this war to the point where they appear to be no longer concerned than. they are preparing to get their people out. for those of us who are friends of richard and ghazi and john, and of course for their families, today and last night when we learned are just pure joy and relief that they are okay. but for all of us who beyond friendship just admire these guys, ri

it's cities and the districts are drawn in ways that the city is the district. so when you do that, it opens up these sort of wide swaths of suburbia that you could have four or five or six republican-friendly districts drawn there, and that's where we start to see some imbalances. >> in a state like pennsylvania, which everybody talks about, philadelphia being the key to that vote, if you win philadelphia, that wouldn't get you anything more than winning any other place in the state despite the huge number of people who live there. >> pennsylvania would have been under this system 13-5, romney this year. >> even though obama won. >> it was 1988 the last time a republican won there. >> there are only two states, nebraska and maine that do their system anything like this, and their history of hoy they got there doesn't really have anything to do -- doesn't match the current history for why these things are being proposed in the republican-led states right now. given that this would be sort of uncharted territory for these states to go this direction, what do you

that program is run by the city's gang reduction unit. detroit, michigan, has seen a bunch of these buybacks, including one last august, where more than 700 guns were turned in at one location in just six hours on just one day. the most interesting question to come out of the president's press conference today is what exactly will happen at the federal level on the reform of gun laws. the president said there would be firm proposals from his administration in a matter of weeks. real reforms right now, he said. but whether or not there is specific and consequential action at the federal level to reduce gun violence, honestly, specific and consequential action can happen in any town, any time. with almost no notice and very, very little planning. that's what these gun buyback programs show. they can be held in small towns and big cities. they can happen in parking lots or in churches or in grocery stores. the money can come from a local government or it can come from you. it won't solve every problem. it will not prevent every crime. it wil
